January 28th, 2010 Sea Captain Plonk E

Now, this is a painting I would never get bored of watching. I would love to have that  on my wall somewhere. It tells everything about this world, that it’s just a ridiculous place really.
More great paintings by Paco Pomet you’ll find on his blog.

Some birds playing Jimi Hendrix tunes

January 21st, 2010 Katarie

Why do I find this extremely funny? I don’t know, but I laughed my ass off, really. It’s probably a very serious piece by Céleste Boursier-Mougenot, but somehow this strongly reminds me of this.

Mosquito destroyer

January 13th, 2010 Sea Captain Plonk E

Artist Johannes Vogl did more interesting stuff, like a Marmeladenbrotstreichmaschine. Always comes in handy.

Create something irregular and repeat it

November 19th, 2009 Sea Captain Plonk E

With that phrase in mind you could score this year on the Youtubes and Flickrs in my opinion. This guy drew a on a gazillion coffee cups and now he shines on Archibald Kobayashi. See the guy at work.

(Thanks Pier!)

D.I.Y. selfportrait

November 11th, 2009 Sea Captain Plonk E

This guy made a halloween-head-costume completely out of paper after being inspired by the typical heads you see in computergames. Damn, I would die if this figure would ring my doorbell standing there all relaxed with his hands on his back. We like it a lot! Click here to see how he pulled the trick.

Erwin Wurm

September 7th, 2009 Sea Captain Plonk E

We think Austrian Erwin Wurm is one the greatest contempory artists of this time. Works with great sense of humor and dryness.

Nollywood

August 12th, 2009 Sea Captain Plonk E

Talking about Robert Mugabe, this is what you get when you let that prick dictate a couple of years more. Truely fantastic photography by Pieter Hugo.

Faces off Evil

August 12th, 2009 Sea Captain Plonk E

This dude spent days in front of photoshop using parts of anonymous faces of countries where once dictators ruled. The cutest I think is Robert Mugabe. You just want to pinch his cheek and say: “ahhhh, koodiekoodiekoodie!”. Great work.
